I'll start off by saying that yes, I have searched the subject.

:help I for the life of me cant find anyone that makes a decently priced ($300/ea or less) low offset and wide(ish) wheel. Even searching (gasp!) Rota, XXR, etc all i find is either skinny (17x8) or high offsets. I realize that MOST people try to stay in the constraints of their fenders, and maybe its just me coming from the Nissan S-chassis 5x114, but still, most of those guys had to run flares to fit easily available wheels.

Im wanting to run 17x9.5 with an ideal offset somewhere around +10 and 0. A 20mm spacer is really the max I'd consider running (have them) but I really dont want to go that thick even, but might if I can find a wheel with 20mm offset.
I was thinking ARC-8s, but at 35mm Im still only at +15 with a spacer I'd really rather not use.

Im beginning to think I have no choice but to go with a high dollar custom set (CCW, Forgeline, etc) :(

Rondell has some and they're all roughly 250-300 per wheel... That's really all I know of though. I'd be interested in other options though.

xxr 530 comes in 17x9.75, I tried to get the 527s but you cant really get them to fit the e36... or at least thats what I was told

Yet none of them make a wheel that fits his size description in his price:rolleyes

Varrstoen wheels. The thread pitch isnt listed for some but a couple of people on BF have mentioned that they can be order, just have to give the company a call.

Looked on their site and saw they had 17x9.5 et 0. Perfect
Contacted them, they dont have any available. :(

While not quite your ideal, The TSW Tanaka RF is available 17x9 ET30 and is sub 250 per.

What car are these wheels going on? I only ask because a 17x9.5 +10 offset will stick-out an inch beyond the fender on an E36. What you're asking for doesn't exists because there isn't a vehicle with a 5x120mm that will accept such a fitment, short of an AC Schnitzer E34 S5......kinda like making a 6 fingered baseball glove.....it must be custom made.
